here is my current project,wife and son gave it the nickname,I will try to get caught up on pics.this is when I bought it.I had no intentions of doing any thing with it but use it for parts.I thought at some point I would have done another stepside but when I started looking on this site I saw the gasser influenced truck that Hardwaa built and it really messed me up,I love the look of that truck.Mine will be similar.Thanks for looking and I will try to keep things updated as I go.

I decided to use this bed as the original had rust along the factory seam.I cut this one down to make a short bed.I know there is a little difference on the wheel opening but I will address that later once I can see it on the ground.

this is the the rearend setup.got the notches finished,I cut 6 1/2 inches out of the rearend to get the tire clearance I wanted.I still have to mount the lower air bag mounts once I figure out what pinion angle I need.

Thanks guys for the replies,I did re-use the stock housing ends.I cut and re-welded my stock axles to use during mock-up of all my parts.Once I have everything finalized I will order a set of c-clip axles from Moser.Thanks.

Hey man.. Where did you get your wheels/caps?? What are the measurements??
Thanks,
John

hemifalcon, The wheels were on an old frame when I got it,I think they are a standard chevy 5 lug wheel. They measure 15x8 with a 3.750 backspace. The caps I got at a swap meet, I think they are for a first Gen camaro or Nova of that year. I have a set of American Racing TTO's ordered but they have not gotten here yet.

small update,i raised the crosmember 1 1/2 inches and moved it foward 1 1/4 inches,got the rack and pinion mounted,working on getting the a-arms ready for air bags.Also had to check out the wheels I got from markeb01.

Small update guys,getting the air bags mounted.I moved my LCA arms forward .750 to gain caster and found out that I had to move the airbags foward to keep the bags centered in the LCA.This was an unexpected surprise.I had to modify the upper bag plates.

I don't have a lot of pics of every thing cleaned and painted so I thought I would post something a little easier on the eyes,I got the new gen 4 vintage air surefit A/C kit,got it from Way2Lo2(Boris).I would definitely recomend him if you need something.Also finally got rear American Racing TTO wheels for the rear,took about two months to get them but they are here now.well that is all I have for now and thanks for looking.

Thanks Dino,Your trucks are crazy as well,I really like the Pro-Street truck.I must say that I am envious of some of the trucks I see from the west coast,It is hard to find a fairly rust free truck around here without spending a fortune on it.I look forward to your new builds.

I thought while I was posting I would show my last project,Built it from the ground up,I sold it in 06 after building our home.I had to pay for a driveway but you have to do what you have to do.Thanks guys for looking and for all the info this site brings to other people,I have gotten a lot of help from people on here.
